Elizabeth Olsen in first “Silent House” trailer

By Sean O’ConnellHollywoodnews.com: Elizabeth Olsen turned so many heads with her gripping performance in “Martha Marcy May Marlene” that most of us are waiting to see what he has to offer next. Turns out, it will be “Silent House,” a U.S. remake of a Uruguayan horror film. The first trailer made its way online today (via Yahoo Movies). We have it posted below.

“Open Waters” collaborators Chris Kentis and Laura Lau co-directed “Silent House,” which stars Olsen as Laura, a young woman slowly going insane while trapped inside her family’s crumbling lake house. “With no electricity and no contact to the outside world, events throughout the house become increasingly frightening and bloody,” the plot synopsis explains.

Adam Trese, Eric Sheffer Stevens, Julia Taylor Ross, Haley Murphy and Adam Barnett co-star in “Silent House.” But there’s a gimmick, which is clear in the trailer. “House” was filmed in one shot, much like Alfred Hitchcock’s “Rope.” Can it live up to the hype of its trick?

“Silent House” hits theaters on March 9. What do you think of the trailer?
